Concerns over the economy are weighing down President Obama’s poll numbers, which have fallen to their lowest point since his inauguration, Politico reports. Obama’s 57% approval rating in a Gallup tracking poll this weekend remains high, but a series of recent polls find his support falling among Republicans and independents—and even Democrats worried about his economic policies.

Pew found support for Obama on the economy dropped 8 points between April and June; a New York Times/CBS poll said 60% believe he lacks a “clear plan” for budget deficits. But Obama still has “fundamental political support,” says a Pew analyst. The NBC/Wall Street Journal poll that gave him the lowest job approval rating, 56%, also gave him a high personal approval rating of 60%.

Watch his approval rating plummet when NKorea hits the US with a nuclear missile. It will happen on his watch and he will have no one else to blame. His rating has already softened because his voters are seeing him for the Neville Chamberlain he really is. God help this country, we are in very dire straits.
